From: Like Xu <likexu@xxxxxxxxxxx> Assigning a value to pmu->global_ctrl just to set the value of pmu->global_ctrl_mask in a more readable way leaves a side effect of not conforming to the specification. The value is reset to zero on Power up and Reset but keeps unchanged on INIT, like an ordinary MSR.
